简述：After the Ukrainian crisis and Russia's intervention in Syria, the world is closer to the confrontation between superpowers than at any time since the end of the cold war. Now, a committee composed of former British military and diplomatic officials has gathered to carry out a hypothetical "hot war" in Eastern Europe, including an incredible nuclear confrontation. Since the outbreak of the Ukrainian civil war, the war room has faced a situation that has troubled western strategists: Russia may conduct military intervention in the Baltic countries of Latvia and Estonia. Like Ukraine, these countries also have a considerable number of Russian minorities, but unlike Ukraine, they are members of NATO. According to the founding treaty of NATO, an attack on one ally is an attack on all allies. Because of this, western analysts often play games against Russia's attempts to take advantage of the ethnic tensions in the Baltic Sea region and test the strength of the NATO alliance.
